Good Deal Plumbing
About
There are lots of plumbing companies who need to charge a lot of money to cover their advertising and overhead costs. I'm a one-man operation with very little overhead, and I pass those savings on to you. I have 10 years experience in the plumbing industry and a network of valuable contacts. On a core level, I find that meeting new people is the best part of my profession.

I contacted him for a hairline leak at a T-joint on my home's exterior copper pipe. He showed up right on time the next day as promised. The repair was completed professionally with a very clean finish. He also offered a longer warranty period than other companies I inquired with. I will definitely reach out to him again for any future projects

I had a leak from from my garbage disposal. Normally I have my handyman do stuff like this but he was out of town. I called a couple guys on Thumbtack but they couldn't get to me for a couple days. I thought I'd try this "Good Deal" guy. Derek showed up, had a look and showed me a photo where it was leaking through the corrosion on the bottom, which meant I had to replace it. He told me the cheapest way was for me to buy the new one, and he'd install it for $250. Home Depot charges $315. The new disposal cost me $130. I know some plumbing companies charge $800 for a job like this so $380 seems like a good deal to me. Derek was nice enough to wait at my house while I went to buy the new disposal. No complaints. His Boston accent was great!

Derek did some work for me a couple of years ago and I kept his number. Yesterday I paid him $700 to install a water heater I purchased. Can you believe that saved me about $1800 from what my neighbor paid Parker & Sons?? Derek even replaced a couple outdoor hose faucets for free. He does a great job, but I mostly call him because he's hilarious. Ask him about the "hardware store at the airport."
